The Victorious Warrior: Challenging Young People to Aim toward the Good was written by a husband-and-wife team who believe that embracing Jesus Christ as Savior and following His example are the best strategies for a purposeful life. This book comes out of their experiences as youths, living apart from Jesus and paying the dearest price for their poor choices. Jesus found them and redeemed their lives so that others can learn from their mistakes and their redemption.Jerry and Michelle Shelfer lead a nonprofit, Prepare a Room Ministries, standing for the dignity of life and offering the healing work of the cross of Jesus Christ to those hurt by abortion and the culture of death. They have written a book that is a help for those hurt by abortion (Nordskog Publishing, nordskogpublishing.com/product/prepare-a-room/).Michelle and Jerry are grandparents of thirteen, many of whom are entering the age group to which this book is directed. The topic of guiding young people to make good choices is a daily preoccupation on a very personal level for them.They use media and the arts to teach, write, and speak about life, the culture, and moral guidance for youth from a Biblical perspective. They offer video teachings, animation, music, social media, books, a podcast, and other strategies to speak on the dignity of life. They travel, speak, and host a Day of Healing from the Hurt of Abortion with their 35-foot-long and 10-foot-high Foundlings Abortion Memorial Quilt, consisting of five hundred Foundlings images drawn by Michelle and constructed by a master quilter. The quilt serves as a way of honoring abortion's victims and as a tool and focal point for healing events and other prolife gatherings.
